Hello,

Following the TP PAge tutorial, I decided to make a small animation and was hoping to trace the particle’s paths.  Using the standard emitter, it’s easy to add a trace object, but how does one do the same thing with Thinking Particles?  I’ve tried different approaches, but nothing seems to work. 8^(

Can anyone help?

Jerome

PS
I’ve included the work file if it helps…

Hi Jerome,

This is a simple process, so no scene file ;o)

You just drag the TP-Group from the TP Settings into the field “Trace Link” (see image) of the Tracer. You can use “All” or any subgroup.

All the best

Ah!  Thank you.  Yes, as with many things C4D, it’s easy once you know it.  8^/

Again, thank you for being here to help us.  I honestly don’t know how I’d manage without your help.

All the best,

Jerome

Hi Jerome,

Yes, the simple comment was not meant otherwise. I can only encourage to explore or play. I believe deeply that many of the most awesome techniques were found that way. You can’t break the app, if - restart ;o)

Thanks for the nice feedback. :o)

Enjoy
